“Memory-Making Mom hooked me as soon as I read Jessica’s guilt-free disclaimer on page one. As a perfectionist who tends to turn everything into a must-do, I needed that permission slip to breathe easy. I also needed her reminder to revel in ordinary adventures and then her gentle push to get out the door and try something new—something that could end up being one of my children’s, and my own, favorite memory decades from now.”
Work, Money & Leadership
“More Than Just Making It contains gems of practical wisdom you can use to turn your financial situation around, yet Erin doesn’t come off sounding like some distant, know-it-all expert. Instead she vulnerably shares, in heart-wrenching detail, the specifics of her family’s own financial disaster and recovery, all the while challenging the stereotypes we may unknowingly hold about the working poor.”

“I hadn’t even finished the first chapter of Permission Granted before I found myself crying tears of relief. Melissa’s vulnerable tone is a rare gift in our picture-perfect grammable world, and her stories and subsequent permission slips offer women a simple, audacious possibility to consider: perhaps we already are who we’ve been frantically trying to become.”
Social Critique by Israel's Eighth-Century Prophets
Biblical Studies & Commentaries
“Professor Gossai is the first to have made a detailed study of the different ways in which the Hebrew terms (and their cognates) for 'righteous(ness)' and 'just(ice)' are used in different parts of the Hebrew Bible. Only when this firm linguistic-analytical basis has been laid does the author apply his findings to the use of these same terms by the great social prophets of eighth-century BCE Israel. This work will prove invaluable not only to all who are interested in the social critique applied by those great figures in that period of Israel's history, but also to those who are looking for a solid biblical (Old Testament) base for the wider study of peace, justice, and political and cultural freedom in society today.”

“Bound to become a classic, Stanley Hauerwas’s wise, gentle, and compassionate letters to his godson are, in fact, timeless teachings from a great spiritual master to all of us.”
Ethics, Culture & Social Issues
“A magnificent book, which couldn't come at a better time. It brings together a host of voices that explain, reveal, inform, inspire, and encourage, all in the interests of carrying out an urgent task that all people of goodwill can agree on: feeding the hungry.”

“I have found the Enneagram a helpful tool in enabling me to better understand not only my own strengths and weaknesses but those of others’ as well. Chris Heuertz’s new book invites us to use the Enneagram to grow in compassion for our own complicated selves and, therefore, love ourselves more and allow God to encounter us in our limitless complexity.”
Ethics, Culture & Social Issues
“How can someone best advocate for LGBTQ people in their daily life? That's a challenging question for many people. To make it even more challenging, we could ask: How can someone advocate for LGBTQ people in their daily life and draw from their own religious beliefs to do so? For an increasing number of believers, that is not only a challenging question but an essential one. Ross Murray's new book provides a smart, inviting, accessible, hopeful, and faith-filled roadmap for answering both of these questions, reminding us that the liberation of all people is at the heart of the Gospels.”
Arts & Literature
“Where are all the Catholic writers? is a popular question these days. In his beautifully realized new book The Fine Delight, Nicholas Ripatrazone offers an answer: they are among us, writing. With skill and care, he explores the artistry of three superb writers--Ron Hansen, Paul Mariani, and Andre Dubus--as well as several other contemporary Catholic authors. In the process he reveals . . . how reading can be sacramental, enabling us to discover God's presence in our modern world.”
“Here is a most necessary book. In a time of increasing biblical illiteracy, even some very well-educated people are unfamiliar with the treasury of stories in the Old and New Testaments, stories that are the backbone of much of Western culture. In his joyful new book, Aldo Cazzullo invites us, through sparkling prose, to dive into some of the greatest stories ever told.”

“The Read-Aloud Family is an absolute gold mine for book lovers, with treasures on each page that will enrich your family for years to come. I’ve already used so many of Sarah’s fresh inspirational tips, and I know I’ll return to this title again and again over the years. It’s my new favorite baby shower gift!”
Ethics, Culture & Social Issues
“A mind-opening collection of poetry from a Jesuit priest known mainly as an advocate for peace, a fighter for social justice, and a champion for all those on the margins. Berrigan always spoke . . . with a poet’s heart. John Dear has done a great service to his friend and mentor, and a great service to all who admired, loved, and were challenged by Dan.”
Ethics, Culture & Social Issues
“An urgent, vibrant, and necessary call for justice, which is what God asks--demands--of us all.”
Christian Living
“Riveting, inspiring and beautifully written, a moving account of finding God amidst both the laughter and tears in life.”
History & Biography
“Sisters are my heroes, and this marvelous new book shows why. A vivid portrait of an absolutely remarkable group of women, told with an historian’s skill and a writer’s talent for storytelling. Janice Farnham, RJM, demonstrates tremendous flair as she delves through the history of one of the most incredible of all women’s religious orders and, in the process, brings to life centuries of pioneering spirits and generous hearts.”
“A beautifully written, spiritually deep, and wonderfully practical way of entering more fully into the liturgical year. By turns poetic, inspiring, and challenging, Gloria Ulterino’s new book will help you fall in love with the church year, with prayer, and with God.”
What We Remember Will Be Saved
“Saldaña's gorgeous new book reminds us of the breathtaking individuality of the men, women, and children seeking refuge around the world.”
Women
“In Women Are Scary, Melanie dares to put candid words to the thoughts we’ve all secretly had about the ups and downs of motherhood. With both snort-out-loud humor and refreshing honesty, she encourages us to speak the truth as well — to ourselves and to each other as we develop new momlationships.”
